Rand Paul: John McCain Wants Another 15 Wars

As he announced his intention to run for reelection in the Senate, Rand Paul declared he will run for “less war”, distancing himself from the traditional Republican foreign policy platform by adding that his colleague John McCain wishes to see the US involved in wars with 15 more countries.

Appearing at a Wall Street Journal sponsored event, Paul described himself as “one of the least reluctant to go to war” in the Senate.

“If I’m ever commander-in-chief, I will not want to take the country to war,” the Kentucky Republican added, saying “It will be the last resort and only when the country is united.”
